What We Do
The data science team focuses on helping drive business outcomes across Calm. The business problem comes first (what are we trying to solve?), and the analysis follows (how do we best solve this problem?). Sometimes the solution is straightforward and sometimes it is highly complex—we always rely on data to drive our solutions.
What You’ll Do
As a Senior Analytics Engineer it is your directive to design and develop scalable data models that power our data products serving internal analysis, experimentation and reporting across our entire business.

- Architecting the data warehouse to serve many internal data consumers (e.g. analysts, engineers, product managers, operations managers)
- Building an efficient and scalable data pipeline for high-volume events in the data warehouse
Who You Are

- Strong relationship management and presentation skills
- Hands-on experiencing building data documentation and testing practices
- Pragmatism: balancing scrappiness and rigor
